He outlined the areas to the commission and the relationship to the wetland (lake). It was also noted that there was a tree house proposed on the point.

Mr. Viviano noted in some of those areas there is a sever erosion problems and the proposed work would stabilize. RB noted that placing native vegetation is preferable to lawn. TB had no issue with grass up to the 30 foot no touch zone. He also had no issue with the dock. JR asked for more detail of the tree house and the walk way. RB also expressed concern with the shed in the 50 foot zone. TB noted there is no foundation and in his opinion is acceptable. RB noted that the added shed would cause additional impervious surface. RB felt it the property development was fairly maximized. TD noted he was comfortable with the idea of a dock for boat storage on the north side. KJ noted that he agreed with a dock and a reduced walkway and a tree house with no footings. BP also agreed the grass should not be in the 30 foot and the shed should not be in the 50.

TB reiterated he feels strongly the dock should be allowed and recommended looking at a dock pertaining to limits and size in the commission’s regulation. TD made a point that the tree house is within the 50 foot zone and the commission should think about the issue of the no structure zone. The issue of a floating raft in the lake as the lake is town property as well as the placement of a boulder needs to be researched further.
